DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.
more sales bullshit from these chimps, very low sale through rate these days, everybody is a little wiser
1984 CBX750 is hardly a classic (and never will be).
That's true, but this one's a classic in my book...
http://www.webbs.co.nz/auction-item/...enelli-750-sei
Any or all of these ...
1955 BSA Goldstar
1974 Ducati 750 Sport
1950 Vincent Black Shadow
The bank might hiccup - but they'd be OK ... the wife would probably leave ...
"So if you meet me, have some sympathy, have some courtesy, have some taste ..."
the Vincent is described as Excellent condition.
here's what i could see that wasn't right from the piccies. buyer beware.
later model carbies,
d series hand operated centre stand
wrong size front wheel, should be 20 inch front and 19 rear, later they changed to 18 rear and 19 front (it’s got a metzeler laser which you can’t get in 20 inch)
rev counter added
incorrect dynamo, should be miller, maybe it’s a chinamo aftermarket upgrade
stainless guards, originals were alloy, birmabright, same alloy as landrover bodies
not matching numbers, i’d ask webbs for the two frame numbers, out of curiosity, let them sweat finding them
elephant trunk breather fitted to crankcases, ugly, not the answer for a well tuned bike, although it was the fad for a while to solve them breathing elsewhere.
external coils mounted on left of bike, means mag either missing or just being used as points to operate coils, ugly and not needed in this day and age. coils mounted right below fuel tap---good for fires.
mixture of alloy and stainless tommy bars on magneto cover, not attention to detail here
odd fuel tap i’ve never seen before
several extra holes in at least one footpeg plate, probably for luggage rack at one stage, not standard
incorrect dip switch
modern cables with product details in writing on them
This bunch of wally's just don't do their homework very well. I'm not a Triumph guy but that 1921 SD550 they have on their auction site which they claim to be a "Riccy" four valve (OHV) certainly appears to have only TWO SIDE VALVES.![]()
hey look a train!!
